Radial master cylinder for more stopping power and improved control. Other features are the excellent brake-force modulation and an one-way-bleeding-system which allows easy service.

The opposed 2-piston design for high braking power with minimalistic, high rigidity construction. The brake can be used with G01S resin, G03S metal and F01A resin pads. Shimano recommends the use of SM-RT64 "Servo Wave" brake discs but the brake is also compatible with all other Shimano Centerlock brake discs like the SM-RT68.

The "Servo Wave" system helps to move the brake pads faster to the brake disc which results in faster brake engagement. Open clamp band with hinge construction for easy installation. The brake levers are I-spec certified, this allows mounting of I-spec shifting levers directly to the brake lever clip.

Magazine reviews for Shimano Deore M615 Disc Brake

Review from
Bikeradar

Shimanoâ€™s latest Deore brake offers all the control and power you could need in a simple, ultra reliable, user friendly, ultra bargain package.

Whenever we asked for feedback on these brakes, the unanimous answer was that they were absolutely outstanding.

The calliper is a bit basic â€" with its fixed hose exit creating a big cable loop on some bikes â€" and itâ€™s not a light system either, but the stock organic pads last okay and sintered sets improve dirty weather durability extensively, as well as behaving better in hard and hot use situations.

The lever end is neatly workmanlike, with Shimanoâ€™s double-decker master cylinder and one-and-a-half-finger lever giving good feel. The hinged I-Spec mount means it syncs well with shifters/remotes. You can adjust the reach with an Allen key, and the funnel based bleed system is user friendly.

The cunning ServoWave cam moves the pads on to the rotor quickly and then increases power at the point of contact. The consistent modulation and control were praised by everyone whoâ€™s used the Deores. Rub-free calliper set-up is easy and reliability is fantastic.

The M615 is outstanding value, whether you only need the brake or the reasonably priced rotor and mount too. Check the numbers though â€" older Deore M575 brakes are wooden, glaze-prone and still lurking under some shop counters.
